    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    With all the dozens of highlights (league wins, great goals, European games) they must have in their archive, why do they keep featuring clips which take the p1ss out of the league in the Raiders segment?

    Galway winning the Cup?
    Fenlon scoring two frees?
    One of the fastest hat-tricks of all time?
    Pat's winning the league?

    Three of them so far have been bloopers clips. I'm sure you can work out the percentage for yourself.

    Worth it for that own goal though.

    It's a bit of light-hearted fun. Isn't going to convince anyone to go or not go to a game.

    I don't think Roddy Collins actually thinks that the standard of the league has not improved. We all know that he is an egocentric character. He is appearing on MNS to pander himself. I believe he is trying to copy the Dunphy style of analysing by making bombastic statements to draw attention to himself. I don't think people should get so worked up about what he has to say.

    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    While we're in this pedantic mood, whoever was commentating on the Galway/ Bray match referred to Galway being 'fortuitous' in not conceding another goal at one point, obviously thinking it means the same thing as fortunate, only more so.

    Was it Alan Bennet's sliding tackle from half way tonight? Missed it - assumed you were talking about the Harps goal. That was a cracker!

    That happens a huge amount. Read an amazing article recently that I can't seem to find, which went through all the things that have slipped into common parlance, but are actually just nonsense words or totally out of context.

    Totally OT, but on Drivetime or whatever its called these days, Paschal Sheehy said that the chemical factory on Little island was still cordoned off in case 'another accident might happen again'; surely another accident would have to happen first, before it could happen again, like.

    Yerra us Tralee lads have a frighteningly scary, fearsomely petrifying tendency to lob superfluous words into our sentences. Pascal's a good skin though in fairness.
